About the conversation:

How to Get 5-8 Hours Back Every Week (Without Hiring Anyone)


Key Point 1: The Hidden Cost of Repetitive Work

Most small business owners like you spend 5-8 hours every week answering the same questions over and over—"What are your prices?", "Are you available?", "How do I book?" That's 260-400 hours per year lost to tasks that shouldn't require a human anymore. Padebi Ojomo will show attendees how to calculate exactly how much this is costing their business in time, money, and missed opportunities.

Key Point 2: The Two Types of AI That Actually Matter

There are only two types of AI that transform small businesses: Generative AI (which creates content, emails, and marketing materials) and Agentic AI (which automates tasks like customer service, lead capture, and follow-ups). Most business owners have heard of ChatGPT but aren't using the second type and that's where the real magic happens. Padebi will explain the difference and how they work together.

Key Point 3: Why Speed Wins Sales

Studies show that 78% of customers buy from whoever responds first, and leads contacted within 5 minutes are 21x more likely to convert. When you take 2-4 hours to respond to an enquiry, you've already lost 40% of your potential sale. I'll show how AI assistants respond in seconds, even at 2am, so you never miss another opportunity.

Key Point 4: The Real Numbers

An AI assistant costs around £30 per month. A part-time VA costs £12,000-£18,000 per year. I'll share real examples of business owners who've cut their workweek by 20 hours and grown revenue by 30-40% using AI, without adding a single employee. Attendees will leave knowing exactly what Return On Investment is possible for your business.

This tip is specifically designed for small business owners and professionals who are stretched too thin. If you're working 50-60 hour weeks, drowning in customer enquiries, and can't afford to hire help, this talk will show you exactly how to automate the repetitive tasks that steal your time.

Attendees will learn practical, actionable strategies they can implement immediately: no tech skills required. By the end of my 10 minutes, every person in the room will know how to calculate their potential time savings and have a clear next step to reclaim their hours. Whether you're a consultant, coach, accountant, or service provider, if you answer the same questions more than twice a day, this tip will show you how to stop.
